Question

You are provided with a convex mirror, a concave mirror, a convex lens and a concave lens. You can get an inverted image from

• A. both the concave lens and convex lens
• B. both concave mirror and convex mirror
• C. both concave mirror and convex lens
• D. both convex mirror and concave lens

Answer 1

The correct option is C

both concave mirror and convex lens

The explanation for the correct option: In the case of option C

1. When a hollow spherical is divided into parts and the exterior surface of each cut portion is painted, it forms a mirror, with the inner surface reflecting the light. This type of mirror is referred to as a concave mirror.
2. A straight beam of light is converged by a convex lens, which is thicker in the center and thinner as we travel towards the edges.
3. Only a real and inverted picture of an item can be formed with a concave mirror and convex lens. A virtual and erect picture of an item is always formed by a convex mirror and concave lens.
4. Magnified Virtual image:
   
5. Diminished Real image by Concave Lens,
   
6. Real and Inverted image,
   
   

The explanation for incorrect option: In the case of option A

1. For option A, the concave lens formed only virtual images.
2. Hence, Option A is incorrect.

The explanation for incorrect option: In the case of option B

1. For option B, the convex mirror formed virtual and erect images.
2. Hence, Option B is incorrect.

The explanation for incorrect option: In the case of option D

1. For option D, a convex mirror formed virtual and erect images, and a concave lens formed only virtual images, not inverted images.
2. Hence, Option D is incorrect.

Hence, Option C is correct.
